Brian welcomes Kristi Hofferber, CEO of A Beacon of Light Pregnancy Help Center in Maryville, IL. Kristi shares how adding an on-staff nurse and same-day ultrasounds is changing decisions, why being located between two Southern Illinois abortion facilities makes their work urgent, and the personal story behind her pro-life conviction.
Adopted at birth, Kristi later learned she was conceived in rape and incest, found her birth mother, and became a voice against “exceptions” with truth and mercy.
She closes with practical ways to volunteer and a word of encouragement: don’t be discouraged; keep showing up.
